Chapter 373 The Curse of the Mermaids
"Wow~"
Tao Tao couldn't help but turn around and exclaim.
"what happened?"
He Jiaojiao was a beat slow to react, so she didn't see the pink fishtail.
"Where are you?"
Tao Tao didn't bother to explain to He Jiaojiao. She went straight to the beach and shouted into the water.
"Who are you talking to?"
He Jiaojiao asked in surprise. She hadn't seen anything from the beginning until now.
"She's talking to me!"
A soft voice suddenly appeared, and then a male with long pink wavy hair emerged from the sea. He looked very two-dimensional because his eyes were a rare pink.
"Are you the legendary pink mermaid?"
Tao Tao could hardly control her pounding heart. Oh my God, what luck was this? She actually met such a rare mermaid.
pink?
He Jiaojiao looked at the water suspiciously, but the sea was pitch black at night and she couldn't see anything.
"You know me?"
Li Shen never imagined that this bold female in front of him actually knew of his existence.
"Yeah!" Tao Tao smiled, "She has a merman partner. I heard that from him."
Li Shen's gaze fell on He Jiaojiao. He indeed felt the breath of a mermaid on this female. Moreover, this breath was very familiar, like a beast he knew.
"Can you show me your fish tail again?" Tao Tao squatted boldly on the water surface, trying to see the scenery under the water clearly.
"Taotao!"
He Jiaojiao pulled Tao Tao. You know, in the animal world, looking at the mermaid's tail is equivalent to seeking a partnership from the other party.
Looking at the pink mermaid in front of her, she didn't know whether it was good or bad. What if... Tao Tao had not been in the beast world for long after all, and might not know these things. As a friend, He Jiaojiao felt that she had an obligation to remind her.
"Do you really want to see my tail?"
Li Shen raised his eyebrows and looked at Tao Tao again.
In fact, this was not his first time in the Inland Sea, nor was it his first time in contact with a female.
However, the females in the past had always looked at him with aggression, the kind that wanted to dominate him. But the female in front of him only looked curious.
I didn't expect there are such simple females in the world. If it were her, I might agree.
"Tao Tao, are you interested in this guy?"
He Jiaojiao pulled Tao Tao aside and asked.
Tao Tao was a little unhappy, "Jiaojiao, you already have Lan Yu, you're not going to snatch him from me, are you?"
"No..." He Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She hadn't expected Tao Tao to be so protective of her food. She hadn't even said anything yet, and she was already worried that she would snatch it from her. "It's just that this guy came at such a good time. I'm worried that he..."
"Hehe~" Li Shen couldn't help laughing.
He Jiaojiao then remembered that the males in the beast world all had excellent hearing, and the male mermen should be no exception...
"Saint He Jiaojiao, don't worry, I have no ill will towards you!"
He Jiaojiao was even more alert now. "Do you know me?"
Li Shen smiled nonchalantly, "Technically, I know your partner, Lan Yu."
"Do you know Lan Yu?" He Jiaojiao was a little surprised. After all, she had never heard Lan Yu say that he knew this pink mermaid.
Li Shen smiled and said, "I guess we know each other. We've dealt with each other a few times!"
Hearing that this guy actually knew Lan Yu, and thinking of Lan Yu's current situation, He Jiaojiao stepped forward anxiously, "Can you please do me a favor?"
Li Shen was a little surprised. He Jiaojiao was clearly wary of him just now, so why did she suddenly ask him for help?
But soon, Li Shen understood.
When he stepped into the simple thatched hut and saw Lan Yu lying there motionless, his expression instantly became serious.
"Li Shen, what happened to Lan Yu?"
When she asked Li Shen for help just now, He Jiaojiao already knew his name.
"I still need to confirm!"
Li Shen stepped forward, stretched out his hand and placed it on Lan Yu's forehead. A faint blue light instantly overflowed from his fingertips.
After a long while, Li Shen withdrew his hand, but his expression seemed more serious than before.
"What happened to Lan Yu?"
Just by looking at Li Shen's expression, He Jiaojiao could tell that Lan Yu must be in a very bad condition right now. But he was obviously fine before, so why did he suddenly become like this?
"He..." Li Shen looked around and saw that He Jiaojiao's other companions were looking at him. He took a deep breath, "He must have been cursed by the mermaids."
curse?
But isn’t Lan Yu a mermaid?
Why was he cursed by the mermaids?
The moment she heard the answer, He Jiaojiao had to admit that she was really panicked.
"I heard that this guy had exterminated the mermaid tribe. Now it seems that it is true."
Li Shen withdrew his hand and shook his head.
Judge the clan?
He Jiaojiao realized that since she met Lan Yu again, she had never asked him why he appeared on the shore alone, nor did she ask him about the mermaids...
But wasn't he doing it for the mermaids at the beginning, and even wanted to do it to himself... Logically speaking, he had done a favor to the mermaids, so why did the mermaids treat him like this?
He Jiaojiao raised her head and looked at Li Shen, as if she wanted him to say more.
"Don't look at me. Although I'm a mermaid, I never pay attention to the affairs of the mermaid clan." Li Shen said, curling his lips. "What's more, they have always treated me as an alien."
"Thank you!"
He Jiaojiao believed what Li Shen said. After all, it was hard not to be regarded as an alien when seeing his pink tail.
Coming out of the thatched hut, Tao Tao couldn't wait to stand in front of Li Shen.
"Why are you stopping me?"
Li Shen frowned. Although he admitted that the female in front of him was quite special, he had long told himself that he should never be paired with a female in this life.
"Will you marry me?"
After saying this, Tao Tao's face turned visibly red.
"no!"
Li Shen refused without even thinking about it.
"why?"
Tao Tao thought that even though she was not as pretty as He Jiaojiao, she was still a very iconic type. She didn't expect that the first time she took the initiative to ask for such a thing, she was rejected so bluntly.
"If there's nothing else, I'd like to leave!"
Li Shen didn't intend to explain. He walked around Tao Tao and headed towards the beach.
Tao Tao was very sad, but she still wanted to find out why Li Shen rejected her, so she rushed over, grabbed Li Shen's arm and pulled hard.
Li Shen never thought that the usually proud female would actually chase him, so he was pulled over by Tao Tao without any defense.
The two of them collided with each other without any warning and fell down.
Tao Tao was terrified. She really just wanted to ask why, but she was too excited and lost control of her strength. Would Li Shen hate her for this?
The soft touch on her lips brought her back to her thoughts. Tao Tao blinked her big, Caroline-like eyes, somewhat unable to believe the face of Li Shen in front of her that had been magnified countless times.
Li Shen's face quickly turned red, and he got up from Tao Tao in a panic. Then he ran to the beach at lightning speed and jumped down.
